This Changes Everything

02 

We may be changing the game, 

but you’re driving the change. 

For more than 25 years, Yamaha has led the industry in innovation. But 

we can’t take all the credit. It’s our customers’ high expectations that 

drive us to improve our game. And it’s your love of the water that inspires 

our unwavering dedication to customer satisfaction. You expect boating 

to get better, every year. And you have strong (and admittedly good) ideas 

for how that should happen. So we’ve 

been doing what any smart company 

would do — we’ve been listening. You 

asked for bass power that was stronger, 

faster, cleaner and more fuel efficient. 

We introduced the new V MAX SHO, ® 

the world’s first 4.2-liter Super High 

Output four stroke for bass boats. You asked for an offshore four stroke 

that was much lighter and more fuel efficient. We launched the next 

generation of Yamaha V6 four strokes. You were looking for more power 

and lighter weight in the midranges. We responded with the new four 

stroke F70. You asked for more portable power—and we redesigned 

our F6 and F4. And that’s just for starters. Our catalog is full of new 

innovations—all infused with Yamaha’s legendary reliability—and all 

inspired by you. You see, we may be the game-changers, but you’re the 

ones actually driving the change. So go ahead — turn the key. 

Let’s discover something new.

[ THE GAME CHANGER ] 

The best of both worlds, the Yamaha four stroke V MAX SHO combines the 

quiet, clean-burning power four strokes are famous for with light weight and 

class-leading hole shot and displacement. It’s a level of four stroke performance 

anglers always wanted on the tournament circuit. And it’s officially put two 

strokes on notice. 

THE YAMAHA FOUR STROKE V MAX SHO IS OUTPERFORMING ITS TWO STROKE 

COMPETITORS. It’s even bested its predecessor, the legendary V MAX ® 

Series 2 two stroke. 

> Quicker —up to 13% faster hole shot than competitive two strokes 

> Stronger —4.2 liters of big-bore four stroke displacement 

> Smarter —up to 12% better fuel economy 

> Lighter —only 505 pounds (dry weight)

[ HOLE SHOT + ACCELERATION ] 

THE V MAX SHO ® V6 4.2 LITER BIG-BORE FOUR STROKE IS GIVING 

TWO STROKE GUYS A RUN FOR THEIR MONEY. LITERALLY. 

Seconds count. Especially when you’re on the tournament circuit and there’s 

money on the line. With a Yamaha four stroke V MAX SHO on board, you’ll beat 

’em all to the action. For starters, its 4.2-liter, big-bore design shoots it out of 

the hole up to 13 percent quicker than its two stroke competitors. Then, its 

Variable Camshaft Timing increases power and throttle response, especially in 

the low to midranges. This results in unbelievable acceleration, top-end and

midrange punch. And it’s fast, almost 2 mph faster than the V MAX Series 2 two 

stroke, with equivalent or better top end speed than other competitors. As if that 

weren’t enough, the V MAX SHO also gives you signature four stroke advantages 

like fuel economy, clean-burning power and a smooth ride. And now that the 

V MAX SHO is prowling the water, it’s safe to say that two strokes are officially 

on the endangered list. 

Outstanding Hole Shot 

Up to 13% quicker hole shot 

and acceleration than the 

two stroke competition, thanks 

in part to their class-leading 

4.2 liters of displacement. 

Responsive Throttle 

Midrange punch and instant 

throttle response created by 

Variable Camshaft Timing that 

has to be felt to be believed. 

Top-End Speed Eye-watering 

top speed, better than or equal 

to the competition, is due in 

part to Yamaha’s Tuned Long 

Intake Tracks and Multi-Point 

Precision Fuel Injection. 

Clean and Efficient 

A Blow-By Gas Re-Burning 

System separates unburned 

combustion gases and re-routes 

them to the air intake system 

where they are burned again, 

maximizing fuel efficiency.

[ LIGHTWEIGHT + FUEL EFFICIENT ] 

THE FOUR STROKE THAT COMPETES POUND-FOR-POUND 

WITH TWO STROKES. LITERALLY. 

Historically, four strokes have been heavier than two strokes. That is, until now. 

The V MAX SHO is a full 34 pounds lighter than previous two stroke V MAX ® 

Series 2 designs. From its redesigned engine bracket to its lightweight cowling 

to its advanced polymer composite lower engine pan, we’ve eliminated every 

extra ounce—without compromising durability. 

1 Light Weight—with a re-engineered cowling, engine bracket and lower engine pan, 

it’s a full 34 pounds lighter than its predecessor, the V MAX Series 2. 

2 Compact Powerhead—plasma-fused sleeveless cylinders allowed us to enlarge 

cylinder bores without increasing cylinder dimensions. 

3 Fuel Efficient—Micro-textured cylinder walls and a new intake system greatly 

improve fuel economy—an average of 12% better than our V MAX Series 2.

The pros know—and they’re backing the V MAX SHO. ®

IT’S NOT JUST CHANGING THE GAME. 

IT’S CHANGING THE ENTIRE EXPERIENCE. 

The V MAX SHO delivers game-changing power and performance. One ride, 

and you’ll learn that—really fast. But once the initial excitement wears off, 

you’ll see the tons of other advantages it offers. Suddenly, you’ll be able to talk 

to your co-angler at speed, because it’s so much quieter than a two stroke. 

You’ll have room for more tackle, because you won’t have to carry oil. You’ll 

cut your fuel costs by up to 12 percent,* because of its four stroke efficiency. 

You’ll breathe a little easier, thanks to its clean-burning power and 

incredible reliability. The four stroke VMAX SHO. It’s not just 

changing the game. It’s changing the entire experience.

THESE DAYS, YOU NEED TO RUN LEAN AND MEAN. 

MEET OUR 562-POUND, 4.2 LITER OFFSHORE FOUR STROKE. 

Apparently, when you find a way to make the already-popular four stroke lighter, 

faster and more powerful, you create quite a stir. Because word about the new 

Yamaha V6 Offshore four strokes is traveling fast—almost as fast as the motors 

themselves. Why all the buzz? Well for starters, their class-leading, 4.2-liter, 

big-bore design means they have the best time-to-plane in their class. When 

cruising at 4,000 rpm, the F300 V6’s speed is up to 19 percent faster than other 

four stroke outboards of similar power. Talk about competing meaner. And now, 

for the leaner. Our new V6s are up to 73 pounds lighter than their competitors.

“YOU’VE GOT MY ATTENTION.” 

GEORGE MITCHELL 


From the cowling to the tip of the prop shaft — our engineers re-examined the 

designs, finding ways to minimize weight and maximize power without compromising 

durability. Case in point, plasma-fused sleeveless cylinders are significantly lighter 

than traditional steel sleeves, and are also 60 percent harder than steel. And 

that’s just one of the many innovations in the new V6s. Net-net, you have a quiet, 

clean burning, fuel efficient four stroke that’s also faster, stronger and lighter. Now, 

that is something to talk about. 

Lighter Weight Up to 73 pounds 

lighter than similar competitors, 

the V6s are completely redesigned, 

featuring plasma-fused sleeveless 

cylinders, advanced composites 

and a lighter, but more powerful 

alternator. 

Power and Durability Classleading 

4.2-liter displacement, 

in part due to plasma-fused 

sleeveless cylinders, which are 

60% harder than steel, for light 

weight and outstanding durability. 

Acceleration Substantially 

quicker to plane than competitors 

and up to 19% faster at cruise, 

the V6s feature larger intake and 

exhaust valves, variable camshaft 

timing and In Bank Exhaust. 

Smooth Shifting The new 

Shift Dampener System (SDS) 

greatly reduces noise commonly 

associated with shifting gears. 

Using a special new design and 

components, much of the resulting 

force is absorbed, resulting in 

quieter, smoother operation.

Fuel Economy Up to 17% more fuel efficient at 3500 rpm than comparable 

300hp four strokes, thanks in part to a single, electronically controlled throttle

PLUS DISPLAY 


Command Link Plus 

Single Engine Combo Screen 


A SEA OF INFORMATION IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND. 

Command Link ® Plus features a five-inch, full-color, high-resolution LCD display. 

Monitor the performance of multiple outboards and critical boat systems, all 

in one place. Fully customizable, Command Link Plus allows you to select 

your digital gauge style and set the screen to display preferred combinations 

of information. At a glance, you’ll have real-time stats on fuel in addition to 

information on trip distance, water depth and water temperature at the surface.* 

For maximum visibility, day or night, you can even adjust the brightness and 

color of the display. This convenient, five-inch screen puts a sea of information 

right at your fingertips. 

*May require additional equipment. 

> Single Engine The customizable 

“combo” screen displays critical 

systems data, including: shift position, 

engine RPM, boat speed, engine trim 

level, available fuel in gallons, fuel level 

(up to 4 tanks), fuel flow, fuel economy, 

and up to three vital engine functions 

of your preference (e.g. oil pressure, 

water pressure and battery voltage). 

All measurements are displayed in 

easy-to-read bar graphs. 


Twin Engine Combo Screen 

> Twin Engine Displays critical systems 

data for both engines simultaneously 

on one Command Link Plus display. In 

a twin-outboard configuration, fuel flow 

and fuel economy numbers are totaled, 

and two vital engine functions of your 

preference can be displayed (e.g. water 

temperature and water pressure) for 

each outboard. Quad outboards require 

two LCD gauges.


Triple Engine Combo Screen 

> Triple Engine Displays critical systems 

data for up to three Yamaha outboards 

simultaneously on one Command Link 

Plus display. In a triple-engine configuration, 

fuel flow and fuel economy numbers are 

totaled, and one vital engine function of 

your preference can be displayed (e.g. oil 

pressure) for each outboard. 

Menu Screen Allows you 

to customize the screen 

appearance and the information 

displayed. Set logs, depth 

alarms, clock, units of measure, 

initial and alternate display 

options, and more. Adjust 

display’s brightness, colors, 

backgrounds, set favorite 

settings and precisely calibrate 

fuel flow. 

Boat Screen A quick change 

of screens shows you available 

fuel, fuel level (up to 4 tanks), 

total fuel flow, fuel economy and 

gallons used at a glance. It also 

displays trip distance, water 

depth and water temperature 

at the surface.* 

Appearance Options Choose 

between a digital or “analog” 

look, and select from a variety of 

text and background colors for 

maximum readability. 

Tank Screen Today’s modern 

boats have any number of 

tanks, for fuel, fresh water and 

waste—even generator fuel. 

With Command Link Plus, easily 

monitor the levels of up to four 

tanks (provided they each have 

a fluid-level sending unit). Levels 

are displayed with easy-to-read 

bar graphs with a percentageof-full 

indication. Using the 

Menu screen, you can choose 

how each tank is labeled, for 

quick and accurate reference. 

Night Screen Choose from 

five levels of backlight for 

maximum visibility, no matter 

what the conditions. After dark, 

switch over to the “night” mode 

for background and display 

colors that are readable in low 

light. In applications where 

more than one LCD display 

is used, displays can be 

synched, applying all display 

light levels automatically.

Shift Dampener System 

SDS 

[ SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGY ] 

WE’RE REVOLUTIONIZING YOUR BOATING EXPERIENCE. 

Yamaha engineers continue to push propulsion technology to new levels. 

And it’s our customers that drive us. They have high expectations and 

good ideas on how to make their boating experiences even better. In 

fact, they inspired our breakthrough Shift Dampener System (SDS). 

Its world-first design and high-strength components absorb shifting 

force, for a quieter, smoother ride. Initially, SDS will be available on 

Saltwater Series II propellers from 13˝ to 23˝ pitch in right- and lefthand 

rotations. 

Splined Aft Washer 

specially designed for 

proper SDS operation 

Splined Rubber Hub 

helps cushion and quiet 

shifting forces 

An internal dampener helps eliminate the 

“clunk,” sometimes associated with shifting 

into gear, by absorbing the resulting energy; 

creating a quieter, smoother shift. 

The unique design of SDS is so dramatically 

different and quieter, it’s patent pending. 

With their aggressive design, outstanding 

performance and now SDS, Saltwater 

Series II–SDS propellers are the pinnacle 

of performance for big boats in big water.

YAMALUBE 

OUTBOARD OILS 

Why choose Yamalube? 

Though many outboards have the displacement 

of high-performance automotive engines, the 

marine environment presents unique challenges. 

Premium lubricity is critical for extended fullthrottle 

operation, high loads and salt air. 

Yamalube ® 4M is FC-W ® certified, the NMMA ® 

performance standard for four stroke outboards. 

What are the advantages? 

Yamalube ® 4M FC-W ® is designed by Yamaha 

specifically for Yamaha four stroke outboards. 

A superior formulation, Yamalube ® 4M FC-W ® 

surpasses factory requirements and is engineered 

to provide dependable protection, easier starts, 

high performance and long life. 

How does it provide better protection? 

Yamalube ® 4M FC-W ® keeps your engine cleaner 

and better lubricated, even in harsh marine 

conditions such as low-speed trolling in cold 

water. It features more anti-wear additives than 

passenger car oils for better bearing protection, 

polymers that resist break down, superior rust 

and corrosion 

Saltwater Spray Test 

inhibitors and the 

highest amount of 

detergents and 

dispersants available.

At Yamaha, customer satisfaction is our top priority. It fuels our relentless pursuit of a more reliable, 

exciting boating experience. As if happy customers aren’t reward enough, in 2010, Yamaha received its 

ninth consecutive Marine Customer Satisfaction Index Award. ® In the history of the award, we’re the only 

outboard company, ever, to achieve this. We’re staying the course in 2010, releasing new outboards, 

re-engineering existing models and revolutionizing the worlds of bass fishing and offshore boating. As we 

continue to chart new waters, know that one thing will remain unchanged—Yamaha’s legendary reliability. 

After all, that’s what has helped us keep our customers so satisfied, for nine years running.
